Found these clips from a few years ago.. still cant belive we used to do this in the street.. for about 20 years.. each year got bigger
Used to fuse things together and have about 5 different people lighting and running simultaneously.. it was great fun.. but stupidly dangerous.. one thing i do miss we would do 1-2 16000 shot bandoliers in the finale.. dont do that anymore.. they dont quite have the same effect on grass.. and is way to much of a bitch to clean on grass

That is a boatload of crackers!! I thought about using some long strings like that in my show, but it's just too much smoke and paper to clean up afterwards.

I used a 16k string last year, added a few piles of opened 100strings along it with some better crackers powdered in at the end... My small scale super string, ended up with like 10 bricks of 100strings...and about 30 larger crackers... On a dirt drive way, the clean up sucked

Haha.. thats sounds awseome!!!!..the cleanup does suck.. but i think the joy it brings out weighs the suck!!! I always wanted to do my own mini mascleta ..hopefully once i get the 54.. i could get a case of "crackers".. that would make for a insane finale or just by itself

That is how they do it in New York City I heard, in the street.

Could get the crackers without a user permit, though quick match can be tricky without one. Those guys are crazy with their salutes going off right by people, but I want to make a trip down some time for it.
